    £2 for me x
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    Thanks for the love SUE;), you're right about it being one of those times, we've bought a second car and its hit us for six, got ripped off really and couldn't do anything about it! Anyway that's done now and hope to learn from my mistake. Also I know its the wrong board but Sarah has started smoking again, don't know why, she says shes stressed out. Lord help us he:). Sorry to go on, Paul.

    Oh dear Paul, rotten luck lately, but don't let it get to you too much as we all get stages such as that so never think you're alone! Don't worry too much about Sarah, she's been free for a good while now and I hope she'll soon come to realise that smoking won't de-stress her, just the opposite in fact!! So, give her time and like as not she'll want to return to the old her ....and keep up with you! I wish you both well Paul, take care! :)

    sparky you should be ashamed of yourselves scoffing kiddies as you do! I find em too filling! ;)

    Hope you feel better soon Reb. You let LC get ahead of you??! You shock me!:eek:

    Just a quick'n for now folks. Take care all and have a good day. £5.61 for me!

    Afternoon everyone,
    £12 going into the pot this evening as I've been neglecting it, also received 5 X £2 coins from the pools man in work. Also I'll have to raid DW's purse, as she snaffled a couple of gold coins out of my pocket. Thanks Sue for training her as one of your elite pocket raiders, I didn't know they were gone until I got into work!

    Scooter club meeting tonight, so look out LC2 we might come past your house on the way there tonight

    Have a great evening everyone take care and stay safe

    Finally have my "pot", dug out (from 2 Christmases ago) one of those jar bank things.....as you put change in it keeps track......yeah, those :rotfl:

    I'll put a round of tape on it to make it official :D Anyway, dug out all of the change in my bag, some that was in a box beside the bed and even the 30p I found in a pair of jeans yesterday while checking for the wash. Came to a grand total of £17.55 for my first depotsit. Yes I said dePOTsit. Well I thought it was clever :o

    There are two small bank change bags (full) somewhere and I can't for the life of me remember where I've stuck them! I'll be spending the rest of the evening trying to figure it out tho, want them in my pot, lol
